Meeting Zulus |
|
It's a small world and naturally Wildshot Tim and SafariScout Beate met of course in Africa. In a lodge in the South African Drakensberg mountains, where Beate worked at the time and Tim recovered from malaria after a months long wildlife photo-shoot. Now he is back in Hannover writing down his travel tales. They are soon to be published in a book together with his photographs. The title: "Hunting bears in sandals". He collected his stories all over the world, such as Canada, Costa Rica, Portugal, Tunisia and South Africa, where he guided eco tourism tours to help finance his own trips. This is when Tim first started to compose his impressions systematically on 24x 36mm film.

From his early youth he was fascinated and attracted by the vast landscapes of the American North West. Today he resides in Oregon for a good part of the year. From there he organizes his month long trips north: to the wilderness of British Columbia, the Yukon Territories and Alaska. Where the road ends, canoe or kayak are used to transport the equipment and to travel into undisturbed wilderness. Today, Tim is one of the few German experts for travel in the northern wilderness country and has brought home some fine camp fire stories.

Photography together with a growing experience of both nature and more sophisticated equipment became his way of telling his stories, of sharing his experience. Over the last few years, Tim, now thirty, has been travelling exclusively to photograph wildlife, adding thousands of pictures to his file every year. South Africa and its great National Parks have recently become more important topics in his file.
